2-009 Compliance With Employment and Training Requirements
Unless determined exempt by the worker, a refugee is required to register for employment services within three days from the date of application.
The refugee must register for employment service and/or employment orientation with the initial sponsoring Voluntary Resettlement Agency that initially resettled the refugee. If the initial sponsoring Voluntary Resettlement Agency is located outside the city or state the worker must notify the agency that the refugee has applied for refugee assistance. In this case, the worker must refer the refugee to an appropriate agency providing employment services funded under the RRP. If there is no Voluntary Resettlement Agency or a funded agency providing employment services in the area, the refugee must register with the local employment service.
The refugee is also required to accept an appropriate employment or training opportunity.
